As title states,

Looking to buy a daily car so that I can work on my current car.

Was considering a jazz but its kinda high up there for a daily car.

Looking to spend around 5-6k

Any suggestions?

I'd just grab an EG Civic. I have the EG sedan VTi for my daily. Cost me $6g in March '08 with 169k KMs on it. Does the job, comfortable enough, zippy enough to overtake properly and some fun little mods can be done to it cheaply if you can't help yourself.

I have an egg breeze. Pretty cheap to run, cheap insurance (even full comp), Not a beast, but who cares, really!

bought for 2.7k with 130x kms, very very good condition. You'll be able to find something

is that a lot? I thought it was well worth it, paint's slightly faded, has a small ding on rear bumper, but has a full service history at the Honda dealership... and was driven by an old lady for 18 years.
